Chapter 69 Gurgle Gurgle Roll Down
Hua Chao hurriedly pulled Gu Jiayue back. The noise grew louder, like a large rock rolling down. The object drew closer, landing at Gu Jiayue and the others' feet.
Gu Jiayue’s first reaction was: This must be a conspiracy.
Otherwise, why would such a huge mountain roll in any other direction but at her feet?
"Miss, it's a person!" Hua Chao was a little scared. How could someone roll down from such a high mountain?
Looking at the man in front of her whose life or death was unknown, Gu Jiayue looked alert. She even pulled Hua Chao back a few steps and didn't even glance at the man on the ground.
"Miss, what should we do? Should we save him?"
The man seemed to be seriously injured. His body was covered in dirt and grass, blood was flowing from his arms and abdomen, his eyes were closed, and it was unclear whether he was dead or alive.
"No." Gu Jiayue answered decisively, pulling Hua Chao and turning to walk away, her steps hurried, as if a vicious dog was chasing her.
Hua Chao couldn't help but look back at the man. For a moment, she felt a little reluctant. "But Miss, that's a life."
"The chicken, duck, fish and meat you eat regularly are your life. Why do you always eat them more deliciously than others?"
Hua Chao was speechless for a moment. He wanted to say that this is different. Aren’t chickens, ducks, and fish born to be eaten by humans?
But this is a life just like theirs. We can't just watch him die, right?
But Hua Chao is used to listening to Gu Jiayue. She will express her own opinions, but will not disobey the young lady.
"Hua Chao, I'm going to teach you a lesson today. Never pick up men on the street. If you do, you'll be in big trouble. At the very least, your heart will be dug out. At the worst, your whole family will die and their hearts will be dug out."
Even though Gu Jiayue didn't read many novels in her previous life, she loved watching short videos and was deeply impressed by the authors' limited imagination.
Anyway, the heroine will definitely meet the seriously injured hero when she goes out, and then she will pick him up and take him home regardless of whether he is good or bad, and then she will get into trouble.
At the very least, she would be tortured physically and mentally, her heart ripped out; at the worst, her family would be destroyed while she still loved him! Gu Jiayue was truly not interested in such a bloody experience and encounter.
Thank you for the invitation. I have dedicated my entire life to education.
Men? They'll only slow down my lesson preparation!
System: Yes, that's right. Host, continue to maintain this attitude, without any love in your heart, and draw your sword like a natural god. For the great cause of education, charge!
"Ah?" Hua Chao shivered. Is it so serious?
"What? Remember? Don't just pick up random men. Dead or alive, good-looking or ugly! Don't pick up women either! Picking up women will only bring you worse luck. You might end up in a mindless competition for women! Boring."
Thinking back to those mindless skits from her past life, Gu Jiayue wanted to roar so many times. Why? Why would that vicious female supporting character humiliate herself and embarrass others like that for a man? Was she a masochist?
Unfortunately, no one would answer her.
And she herself may have forgotten that the original body she traveled through was the brainless villain in the book.
"Okay, I remember." Hua Chao nodded heavily. The young lady's words were golden words. No matter whether he understood them or not, he just had to remember them.
She said that kind people like the young lady always have their own reasons for doing anything.
At this moment, Hua Chao no longer had the pitiful thought in her mind that the man was pitiful. She just hoped that those heartbreaking misfortunes would not happen to her lady.
"But miss, is it inappropriate for him to die on our property? When people come to build the house later and find the dead body, will it be harmful to you?"
Gu Jiayue stopped where he was, frowned and thought for a moment.
Hua Chao had a point. If this person died on her territory, it might not have any impact on her in the end. But since someone had died there before, wouldn't it ruin the feng shui? She was planning to build a school, so what if it scared the children?
"You're right. Let's go find the village chief."
It is impossible to save him by herself. She should leave this matter of being a good person to the village chief. It is up to the village chief to decide whether to take him in or send him to the authorities. What does it have to do with her, a teacher?
Yeah, that’s right.
The two walked faster, not even noticing the man's struggling hand stretched out from a distance. "Don't run! Save me! I'm not dead yet!"
Unfortunately, Gu Jiayue doesn't have the ability to read minds.
She was so afraid that the man would actually die on her territory that she even started jogging.
When she saw the village chief, she hurriedly told him what had happened.
The village chief did not give a perfunctory answer. A person from another village inexplicably appeared in their village and rolled down the mountain. This matter could be a big deal or a small one.
He immediately called several young men in the village, and they all took ropes and sticks and walked towards the place Gu Jiayue said.
Gu Jiayue breathed a sigh of relief, hoping she could catch up, otherwise she would have to find a new Feng Shui master to choose a location for her school.
"Let's go home."

When Grandpa Gu returned home, he found that Gu Jiayue, who had left earlier, had not returned yet.
He was worried and restless, so he paced back and forth in the room.
This disturbed Grandma Gu who was doing needlework.
Grandma Gu put down her sewing basket and said, "Tsk, what are you doing wandering around like this, old man? If you really can't sit still, go and open up some wasteland!"
Grandpa Gu froze. He wanted to continue wandering around but was afraid of being scolded, so he could only sit aside. "Where has this girl gone? It's been so long and she still hasn't come back."
Grandma Gu rolled her eyes, her hands moving non-stop. "Where could she go? She's been here for a while now and has made some friends. Maybe she went to visit her little sister, or maybe she went to the foot of Nanshan Mountain to look at her land."
"Speaking of this, talk to the eldest and second brothers and ask them to go there when they have time. Jiayue bought so many materials and piled them up there. What if someone took them?"
Grandpa Gu was also anxious. "You're right. There's nothing to do at home anyway. I'll call the eldest and second sons to go to Nanshan."
Grandma Gu quickly grabbed Grandpa Gu and said, "You old man are really foolish. Didn't you order the eldest and second sons to go out and cut willow bark?"
Grandma Gu didn't know how to describe Gu Xuanhai. He had a new idea every now and then and was always in a hurry, as if he would not live to see tomorrow.
"Then I can go by myself, right?" Grandpa Gu knew he was being disliked, but he also felt wronged. Wasn't it the old woman who suggested asking the eldest and second sons to go and take a look? Now he's angry again. And the same thing happened with the last family division. It was clearly the old woman who suggested it, so why was he always the one who got hurt?
Alas, people always look down on us when we get old.
Grandpa Gu put his hands behind his back, staggered out of the yard, and slowly walked towards Nanshan.
On the way, he happened to run into Gu Jiayue who was returning home. "Grandpa, where are you going?"
Grandpa Gu was delighted to see Gu Jiayue. "Jiayue, you're back? I was planning to go to the foot of Nanshan Mountain to take a look. I'm worried about you leaving so many materials there."
"Then you don't have to go. I just came back from there and everything is fine." The materials were safe and sound, but there was a half-dead person lying there.
Grandpa, you’d better not go. You’re too old, don’t scare yourself.
"Okay then, let's go home?" Grandpa Gu didn't insist.
"Okay, let's go home."
The three of them walked on the road, and the setting sun stretched their shadows very long, just like traces left by time.
After walking for a while, Grandpa Gu spoke first. "Girl, if you tell the villagers about the seedling cultivation method and they don't do as you say, you won't be sad, right?"
